Fenerbahce vs Anadolu Efes Prediction: the Visitors Aren't Going to Give Up

Prediction for the Euroleague match between Fenerbahce vs Anadolu Efes, which will take place on January 3rd. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

Fener is obviously in trouble. They failed four out of five games in December. The team has also lost their last two matches at home, including at the end of November. Meanwhile, the bookmakers have Jasikevicius' side as favourites. We have our doubts and am curiously looking for Efes' handicap of +3.5. 

Efes still has an excellent away record - five wins and four defeats. However, Mijatovic's men have failed their last three away games, all by double digits, conceding between 85 and 97 points. In general, the bookmakers have a point, offering Fener to win by 82.5 points. Well, if Efes concede so much, why not?

However, the bookies' prediction of a large score doesn't mean that the hosts will win. Since the spring of 2024, Fenerbahçe has lost four home games to Efes and won only two. Incidentally, Fener has only managed to score 82.5 points in one out of six matches. On one occasion, they failed to do so even in extra time.

Fenerbahçe's injuries list is overcrowded, with Marjanovic suspended, while Efes has everyone fit, including the centre-backs. Moreover, Fenerbahçe played Efes poorly at home last year even when they had a full-strength team, not the other way round.
